Many years ago, too many to count, I began to take steps to raise my consciousness above the things of this world. At 28 years old, I remember telling my Teacher, that I wanted to understand, “Magic.” I laugh lovingly at that comment now. In this work there is magic and wonder and learning and lessons beyond a 28 year olds’ comprehension. 28 years later, I often still feel like a fledgling. Magic? Oh yes, there is magic and so so so much to learn.

Prior to meeting my Teacher, one of the first books I read was Medicine Woman, by Lynn Andrews. I read all of Ms. Andrews’ books. That, in and of itself is a great feat, as I am not one to read books at all. But these teachings touched me deeply. They still do.

This week, Lynn posted an article on fear that I want to share here. She provided me permission to post the following:

The coming full moon ~ Sun in Libra, Moon in Aries ~ reverses the polarity of the 2 luminaries from their position at the Aries Festival of the Risen One that occurred this past April 15.

As the moon moves through the zodiac from Libra at the 9/23 new moon to Aries at the 10/8 full moon ... as we observe the moon as it waxes in reflecting the light from the Sun ... it's interesting to note that both this coming full moon during Libra and the Aries Festival in April are lunar eclipses relating the stepdown of energies from Aries and Libra (1). “The darkness of these eclipses demands we be receptive to the infinite unknown. We must stretch to expand our consciousness. We may feel like we are walking across a bridge to a brand new place, with no turning back from where we started.” (2)

Hello Sky Watchers,September 23, 11:14pm PDT marked the beginning of a new lunar cycle, which peaks with the October 8 Full Moon total eclipse and ends Oct. 23, 2:57pm PDT. The folks at SouledOut.org invite you to participate in the Libra Festival Global Meditation.

Retrograde Mercury (Oct. 4-25) is always too close to the Sun to be seen, however its solar communion always brings a shift or change in direction. Surrender and maintain during the first half of Mercury's retrograde (before its inferior conjunction 10/16). At this time allow the new incoming cosmic energies to break up the old patterns. During the second half (after 10/16) pay attention to emerging new ideas.

This cycle's Full Moon total eclipse brings a time of endings, culmination points and major changes. It is followed by the Oct. 23 New Moon solar eclipse. This is a repeat eclipse pattern that occurred in April 2014! The darkness of these eclipses demands we be receptive to the infinite unknown. We must stretch to expand our consciousness. We may feel like we are walking across a bridge to a brand new place, with no turning back from where we started. How To Deal With Eclipses

A most auspicious opportunity for meditation is here with Tuesday’s new moon (11:14 pm PDT / 06:14 UT on Wednesday 9/24). Sun conjunct moon takes place just over 24 hours after the autumn equinox, adding extra emphasis to these astronomical, celestial events.
